over a long period of time and hope whoever is responsible will be punished severely. in russia's parliament, there was a moment for this young boy follow bid a series of passionate speeches by politicians claiming his death proves they were absolutely justified in passing legislation banning u.s. nationals from adopting any more russian children. they did that at the end of last year. partly in response to u.s. legislation, targeting russian human rights abusers. but also because of concerns held for a long time here by russian officials who say they are worried about the way russian orphans are treated in the united states. supporters of the adoption ban claim since the 1990s 19 other russian children have died after being adopted by americans. the russian government says it is very concerned about the welfare of russian orphans and says 60,000 have are been adopted over the last 20 years. the adoption ban is one of the key reasons why relations between the united states and russia are the worst that they have been in a long time. a line of politicians here and officials have

washington post," after the meteor blast in russia injured nearly 1,000 people, a d.c. area lab wants to slam a spacecraft into an asteroid to prove we can prevent a potentially catastrophic event. a johns hopkins team is writing a $150 million program to shoot a rocket at an asteroid as it passes close to earth. if successful, it would be the first time an asteroid would be knocked off its trajectory because of human intervention. >> this a big story from "the san francisco chronicle." marissa meyer, president and ceo of yahoo! is changing company policy. she's forcing all employees now working from home to report to the office. as you can imagine, many telecommuters not happy with the move. according to the paper, insiders say it will help cut the company's bloated infrastructure and get rid of employees who are not productive. this is a company that had been known for its culture. a lot of moms liked working there. you could work from home a little bit. apparently that won't be the case anymore. >> the deal with too many people on the payroll. the irony of a digital company basically telli

saying during the campaign that america's number one geo political foe was russia tp do they not realize that 1989 happened, that the berlin wall came down, that the soviet union and its satellite states actually collapsed? what's happening here? >> well, what's happening is that it is in many ways a throwback to the cold war era when republicans were really peaking at least from a foreign policy perspective and ronald reagan took a great deal of credit and is given a great deal of credit for the collapse of the soviet union. cruz and others are a rest of the new conservative politics where some of these senators when they used to come to washington even if they were fire brands who bucked the party were under a great deal of fresh to come into the tent of party leadership and adhere to their positions and vote with them because they knew the party leaders were the ones who could steer the money and connect them with the influence industry and the folks who could give them the money to run their re-election campaigns. now you have the tea party sort of ground troops who can support a cam

. it was a lost opportunity of strengthening he could have done in the region. for china, iran, and russia and pakistan, we need more allies in that region and not to isolate ourselves. to leave afghanistan too quickly will put them in the arms of other countries. we would miss an opportunity to grow a real partnership over there. i definitely think maybe that's not military, maybe state department stuff instead. [indiscernible] i feel like cutting banks' stock will limit our ability to have that impact. when we talk about the american economy and american workers and values, it's good for us to be good to other places and that helps us here at home too. [indiscernible] it affects us in an indirect way, maybe not as much as social security and medicare. sequestration has really gotten people up in arms. i was looking for more of him to talk about that or how he was going to reduce the deficit host: we will talk about all the issues that president obama laid out in the state of the union address including the responses by the republicans. lawmakers will join us on the show. our boast is --

america and russia. >>> some of the hottest other top stories. let's roll it here. general john allen, the former head of coalition troops in afghanistan is retiring. the president accepted his resignation today. allen says he needs to step down to address a family health issue. he was in line to become the nato supreme commander in europe. just last month he was cleared in an e-mail scandal with a woman involved in the david petree yas affair. >>> heavily armed thieves busted into a belgian airport and stole, get this, $50 million worth of diamonds from a plane full of passengers. it sounds like something out of the movies, sflit police in brussels say the team of eight breached the airport's security gate, robbed the plane's cargo hold. it took only three minutes. >> reporter: the perpetrators were dressed in clothes that resembled police uniforms. they broke into the fence, behind the fence there were two construction sites. they made a hole and entered the tarmac and used the same hole when they made their es cabe. >> they didn't use guns and no one was hurt. diamonds were headed

is a core piece of policy so when people, like russia go to the hill and they are not asked what are you doing on human trafficking, that sends a message to them. so i think that is one of the things, it is the notion of smart engagement on all of our parts. 12 years in, fighting human trafficking equal to this crime that we've identified, is going to take policy innovation, private sector leadership, civil society expertise and grass roots mobilization. as senator kerry said a couple of months ago when the executive order came out, it boils down to this, we have to spot it and stop it. everyone can do that. i'm confident that in the years ahead we can find the ways to stop it. moving from a we don't know to we're making progress. moving from what has been seen as a rigger free zone to one cha is data driven. that is going to take all of you. not saying that someone should doll something about this but saying what can i do about this? tomorrow morning think about what lincoln thought about on the 31st of january in 1865. if you've seen the movie you realize he was counting votes. he was

this morning. host:rt is a russia today. here is one last tweet -- here is a story from "new york times the media distributor." guest: time warner had intentions to drop tv because of its low ratings. they are now are being aced -- s to replace it with aljazeera america. there's nothing to see yet. they have watched aljazeera english coverage and the negotiations have been under way. i also live in brooklyn, channel 92 on time warner carries aljazeera. it is on as we speak in new york. ultimately, i hope they will carry it. it is an important carrier that presents a wide variety of channels and news and the spectrum for is people and we would like to be part of that. we don't think there is any reason we should not be. host: bob wheelock is executive producer for the americas and this started -- trying to establish the new aljazeera america channel. coming up next, we'll take a look at critical reporting about bonuses paid to company executives related to the u.s. bailout. later on, our america by the numbers segment. >> church is the most visited historic site. over half a million peop

, they have key allies in the effort to maintain the treaties such as russia, japan, sweden. but it really is a u.s. instrument. so coca, along with cannabis and opium, became the main targets of the 1961 convention. this historical air as i like to call it, was basically justified by the 1950 reports of the commission of inquiry on the coca leaf, which as sanho pointed out is a totally racist document. it's totally, totally racist. has no scientific evidence. you can find on the web. you'll be outraged as you read it. yet it is to the basis for the international drug control conventions treatment of coca. subsequent to that in the 1990s, the u.n. world health organization carried out a study, w.h.o., carried out a study of coca and cocaine, and they concluded that the use of coca leaves appears to have no negative health effects and has positive therapeutic sacred and social functions for indigenous and indian population but there's a variety of other studies including one done by harvard that points to nutritional value of coca, of the coca leaf. but in response to the w.h.o. study, not

'll engage russia to seek further reductions in our nuclear arsenals and continue leading the global effort to secure nuclear materials that could fall into the wrong hands. because our ability to influence depends on our willingness to lead and meet our obligations. america must also face the rapidly growing threat from cyber attacks. now -- we know hackers steal people's identities and infiltrate private e-mails. we know foreign countries and companies swipe our corporate secrets. now, our enemies are also seeking the ability to sabotage our power grid. our financial institutions. our air traffic control systems. we cannot look back years from now and wonder why we did nothing in the face of real threats to our security and our economy. that's why earlier today, i signed a new executive order that will strengthen our cyber defenses by increasing information sharing and developing standards to protect our national security, our jobs and our privacy. but now -- now congress must act, as well, by passing legislation to give our government a greater capacity to secure our networks and deter a

and this, at the same time that we know that china and russia, in the face of two decades will outpace us with their military spending. what do you make of that? >> well, firstoff, we spend 40% of the world's budget on defense right now and i think what we have to do is fix our strategy first. one of the problems is, ali, we have had the same basic frame work since 1947 and 1947 with some adjustments in the 80's, we figure out the real threats. i always talk about the beginning with the end in mind and this is where we have an opportunity here, since we won the cold war, we're ending the wars in afghanistan and iraq, time to rethink how we focus what we do. we've noticed spending money on division, throwing money at education hasn't made our kids smarter. throwing money at defense without a focus is not going to make the american people any more secure so this is where we have to begin with what are the real threats. how do we go about setting up the strategy to deal with the threats and not continue with status quo. >> tucker: by anyone's measure, the persian gulf, not only the oil flow
